Nice Rant- you even got a decent review hidden in there.

*The Curse of Growth-

Yes. There are a lot of rules across the Spycraft supplements, but that does not mean a gm is expected to use them all or a majority of them.

frex: The crime scene investigation rules. Unless I am running a CSI-type campeign, then I am not likely to look at them.

In other words, I would rather have the tools to do something in my game and never use them.. then not have the tools when I want them. I don't feel "overloaded" because I just decide I am not going to use whatever rule set at this time.

You later go on to fret that the products are of limited use for a non-spycraft d20 player. That is why the product is clearly labeled a spycraft product- so as not too confuse people.

*The Curse of Sales-

Um.. rules do sell much better then scenarios, and often better then settings. It is not something AEG (or the other rpg companies) "seem to feel".

* Supplements building off Supplements

I would rather have the books build off each other then was space reprinting rules or ignore useful tools in other books.

However, I can understand the frustration others might feel who have not bought previous books.
